For a start, acceleration doesn't even have the same units as velocity: acceleration is a velocity divided by time, so while speed or velocity have units of [distance]/[time], acceleration has units of [distance]/[time squared]
Average acceleration points in the same direction as the change in velocity over time. If the velocity is increasing, the average acceleration will be in the same direction as the velocity. If the velocity is decreasing, the average acceleration will be in the opposite direction.
average acceleration is the average of the acceleration of a body in its entire motion where as instantaneous acceleration is the rate of change of velocity at an instant. it may be a function of time or velocity or displacement.
Yes, you can calculate average acceleration by dividing the change in velocity of the object by the time taken for that change to occur. The formula for average acceleration is (final velocity - initial velocity) / time. This calculation gives you the average rate at which the velocity of the object is changing over a specific time interval.
False
False. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Average velocity is the total displacement divided by the total time.

False. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Average velocity is the total displacement divided by the total time.
There are various equations that involve acceleration; the simplest one is the definition of acceleration: acceleration = (change of velocity) / time.
Acceleration = Change in velocity divided by the change in time. This formula only works if velocity is constant. If velocity is not constant, find the acceleration for both points in time. Then add the two accelerations and divide by 2.
Dividing change of velocity by the time it takes to change the velocity. If acceleration is not constant, this will give you the average acceleration during the period; to get the instantaneous acceleration, you have to take the derivative of the velocity.
No, acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with respect to time. It measures how quickly an object's velocity is changing. Average velocity, on the other hand, is the total displacement of an object divided by the total time taken.
Yes, velocity is acceleration x time. If acceleration is the same, velocity can be different as it changes with time. For example a car accelerating with constant acceleration will have a different velocity after 5 seconds than it will have at 2 seconds.
Acceleration is the RATE OF CHANGE of velocity. That means that acceleration and velocity have different units.The only similarity is that both are defined as rates of change.
To determine the average acceleration from a velocity-time graph, you can calculate the slope of the line connecting the initial and final velocity points on the graph. This slope represents the average acceleration over that time interval.
